Caruana Roberto Giuseppe

Caruana Roberto Giuseppe produces extra virgin olive oil under the Sicilia denomination, working with a maximum acidity of 0.5% and at least 100 mg/kg of total polyphenols — parameters that attest to freshness and antioxidant capacity. The olives come from the vast territory of three hundred and ninety-one Sicilian municipalities, and early harvesting imparts the oil with characteristic green tomato aromas, a marker of fruit picked before full ripeness. The activity falls under two regional denominations, Sicilia DOC and Sicilia IGP, which cover one of Italy's largest protected areas. This scale makes the choice of stringent parameters even more significant: in such an extensive territory, qualitative consistency is not a given and must be built bottle by bottle. The resulting oil claims a distinct identity — with prominent bitter and spicy notes — rather than a reassuring softness, reflecting conscious olive management rather than maximum yield.
